English Language Proficiency Tests

English language proficiency tests are required of any student seeking
to study in the United States who was educated in a country where English
was not a national language or the language of instruction. There are
currently two commonly used English proficiency tests.

Advanced Placement International English Language (APIEL) is an increasingly
used and accepted assessment of English language proficiency. It follows
the study and examination format of other Advanced Placement programs
but is designed specifically for non-native speakers of English.

Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is a widely used and recognized
measure of basic English language proficiency for non-native speakers.
The TOEFL was developed by ETS and follows a standardized test format.
